get the trident, the ripjaws sink feels incredibly cheap to me. they look better in pictures
Well what it looks to me the Ripjaws heatsinks seems to work well if there's lots of airflow around them (which there is in my setup) and the Trident works better when there's a little less airflow (compared to Ripjaws). Also the ram slots are quite close to cpu socket on my UD5 so might go for ripjaws after all as they don't seem too tall (in case for future cpu cooler incompability).
EDIT: placed an order for Ripjaws 2000.Couldn't stand using this crappy 2x1GB Corsair DDR3-1600 CL9 kit anylonger that does only ~DDR-1600 9-9-9-24 at 1.66v. The fix for ">2GB RAM issue" for kX Audio drivers arrived sooner than I had expected which while sux that it arrived at the same day I installed my s1156 upgrade, at least I'm able to enjoy some proper RAM performance now. :p

If all people would share opinions in an objective manner, the world would be a friendlier place
This may seem a bit OOT but I was wondering which P55 boards offer FSB/DRAM ratio adjustment. I just bought AsRock P55 Deluxe and this option is either not available on AsRock or I simply can't find it. This is quite weird as Deluxe is their most advanced board. Any ideas?
Found this on the 12800C8 Ripjaw's, very similar ics to the 12800C7's on the previous pages so Powerchip?

Is it alright to mix this memory with Team Xtreem 2000mhz or Geil 2133mhz modules? Am i right to say more modules = harder to higher clocks/tighter timings?
